My name is Jen. I have lost over 225 pounds and had surgery to remove my excess skin. Now I work every day on making healthy choices to maintain my weight and stay fit and strong in a crazy and challenging world!

We now return to regularly scheduled programming…

Today we received the best news that we could have. Marc’s father’s cancer is the lowest grade possible. 6 immunotherapy treatments and the prognosis is great. What a tremendous relief!

So let’s see, I have the excuse of that being a stressor for me for weeks. Combined with the holidays. Combined with my normal set of excuses.

Now I don’t have that. I feel like a weight has been lifted off my chest. Of course, it has landed on my stomach. Holy crap! I have not been on the scale but I know that I have gained even more weight.

It’s just terrible.

But the most important thing in the world is not my weight. It is the health and happiness of people that I love.

Tomorrow I will get up and it will be a new day. A new start. Hell yeah!
